Action On April 27, 2018, the firm issued an Urgent Medical Device Correction letter to all affected customers. The letter advised customers in the following workaround to improve sample quality prior to measurement with the Elecsys Vitamin D total II assay. The firm stated these steps are to be carried out temporarily until further information is provided: 1. Perform a thorough inspection of your pre-analytical handling to ensure a correct assay performance of Elecsys Vitamin D total II and to comply with the individual specifications of the primary tube manufacturers for all tubes in use (centrifugation conditions are particularly important as well as the elimination of foam/bubbles from the surface of the sample). 2. If the issue persists, switch from plasma to serum. 3. If you still encounter the issue for plasma or serum, re-centrifuge the sample in a secondary tube for 10 minutes at 2000 x g prior to measurement with the Elecsys Vitamin D total II assay. If you are still experiencing issues after completing the steps above, discontinue the use of the Elecsys Vitamin D Total II assay. Contact the Roche Support Network Customer Support Center at 1-800-428-2336.
